  1. Decided it was time to share my Revival stash. Missing one CBLDF from the photo.

    Im considering sending the rest of these in to be graded with a 9.8 prescreen but not sure if its worth it.

     

    With respect - If you go 9.8 pre-screen you are only charged $3 by CGC.

    How can you lose?

    Theres a few grand sitting there mate.

    Sell and spend dude.

     

    Thanks for the advice Andy. Now I just need to find some other comics to round out my 50 for prescreen. Does anyone have experience with them taking a lower number for a prescreen?

    I send mine through Joeypost to be pressed and they are flexible on the number. I think the lowest I've done is 37.

     

    Hmm I could also just prescreen through Joey. Cost per comic through Joey pressed is 31 vs not pressed of 25.20..Not sure if thats worth it either. 5.80 adds up...

     

    For 40 comics that would be 1240 vs 1008.

  3. Any reason for the decline in sales from #7 and #8?

     

    51 Saga 7 $2.99 Image 46,971

     

    51 Saga 8 $2.99 Image 42,324

     

    Difference of 4,647

     

    42,324 is more than, but close to what sales were prior to the TPB break...

     

    The difference is more then the entire print run for Peter Panzerfaust this month...

  4. In my opinion:

    ASM 698 - imo not the 1st appearance of Superior Spider-Man.

    Daredevil 21 - cameo appearance of Superior Spider-Man.

    ASM 700 - cameo appearance of Superior Spider-Man and

    "death" of Peter

     

    Avenging Spiderman 15.1 - 1st full appearance of Superior Spider-Man in new costume.

    So the book to get is definitely the Avenging. And maybe 700.

     

    If Daredevil came out before 700 why would you suggest that book over DD 21?

    I'd suggest none of them. This is a story, no different from FF 587 or Cap 25. It'll all be over soon enough.

     

    If you do speculate, flip quickly.

  5. How about the top five modern CGC comics that are doing well?

     

    Spider-Man #1 Chromium cover CGC 9.8 at $205

    Batman Adventures #12 CGC 9.8 already a $202 comic. :ohnoez:

    Wolverine #145 Nabisco Variant CGC 9.4 $200

    Thief of Thieves #1 is trailing at $145

    New Mutants #98 way behind the pack at only $139

     

    As always, more to look at here (thumbs u

     

    $205 is low for Batman Adventures 12. It has had three sale in last three months for $300.
